A Guide To Black Cladding

Predictable, middle-of-the-road house design can really kill the aesthetic of your home design. Remember, your house’s exterior decor is an extension of your personality, so why not opt for something a bit different? If you’re looking for a unique look for your house, charcoal black cladding is a bold, inspired choice. Black as a tone never goes out of style and reflects all the design sensibilities of urban contemporary architecture. In this article, we will highlight all the best design features associated with choosing NeoTimber’s range of charcoal cladding. Let’s take a look…

Having such a dark canvas gives you a licence to experiment with some interesting colour design themes. Because of its dark tone, charcoal cladding can help to create a powerful contrast when paired with something far lighter, such as white rockery displays, pale patio slabs or neutral toned composite decking.

If you are using cladding to decorate an outdoor room or a fascia in your garden space, there are really no limits to what can be paired or contrasted against these darker tones. For example, crisp white or rattan furniture will stand out beautifully against your dark backdrop.

Black as a tone has the benefit of never falling out of favour with the design world. When redesigning the exterior of your home, you would hate for any investment that went into extensive refurbishment to result in something that felt out of date within a couple of years. Thankfully, charcoal cladding is a timeless look, enabling your home will retain its stylish, modern look indefinitely.

Cladding is also a fantastic way to decorate the border and perimeter of your home to give it more of a sense of individuality and character. With many people opting for less long-lasting timber cladding which tends to be far lighter in appearance, you can really opt for something a bit different by daring to go for a darker tone. Rich, darker tones help to convey a sense of sophistication and elegance.

Like the idea of adding black cladding into your space? Choose from NeoTimber’s three ranges, all of which come in a charcoal colour option. Opt for the Classic range, traditional composite material with a sanded finish – guaranteed to naturally weather down to a slightly paler town of charcoal.

Alternatively, you could choose one of our capped composite cladding options: the Deluxe range offers a deep charcoal colour option and an embossed woodgrain finish. Similarly, the Slatted range comes in the same deep charcoal colour tone but comes in a unique brushed effect.
